SAFETY RULES
WARNING
For your own safety, read all of the rules and precautions before operating tool.
WARNING
Always follow proper operating procedures as defined in this manual even if
you are familiar with use of this miter saw stand or any tool used with this stand.
Remember that being careless for even a fraction of a second can result in severe
personal injury.
You must be familiar with the use of any tool or accessory used with this miter saw
stand. The supplier cannot be held responsible for any accident, injury or damage
incurred while using this stand with any tool.
WARNING
Some dust created by operation of power tool contains chemicals known to
the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm.
To reduce your exposure to these chemicals, work in a well ventilated area and work
with approved safety equipment.
Always wear OSHA/NIOSH approved, properly fitting face mask or respirator
when using such tools.
CAUTION
Do not modify or use this stand for any application other than that for which
it was designed.
ELECTRICAL SAFETY
• Power tool plugs must match the outlet. Never modify the plug in any way.
Do not use any adapter plugs with grounded power tools. Unmodified plugs and
matching outlets will reduce the risk of electric shock.
• Avoid body contact with grounded surfaces, such as pipes, radiators,
ranges, and refrigerators. There is an increased risk of electric shock if your
body is grounded.
• Do not expose power tools to rain or wet conditions. Water entering a power tool
will increase the risk of electric shock.
• Do not abuse the cord. Never use the cord for carrying, pulling, or unplugging
the power tool. Keep the cord away from heat, oil, sharp edges, or moving
parts. Damaged or entangled cords increase the risk of electric shock.
• When operating a power tool outdoors, use an extension cord suitable for
outdoor use. Use of a cord suitable for outdoor use reduces the risk of electric
shock. If operating a power tool in a damp location is unavoidable, use a ground
fault circuit interrupter (GFCl} protected supply. Use of a GFCI reduces the risk
of electric shock.
